Where are all the {} brackets around color and font?
There are too many to highlight them all but you get the idea.
You might do a search for conky gui and install it. It might help with your syntax.

From my understanding If there is not a value change the {} are not required. IE $color = ${color}, changes the color back to the default color. Everything in the script is working except the line that calls the script. The value that I am getting back is the samething that the script returns when it is run in a terminal window.

[KrispyKritter]

It is not possible to pass a conky variable to a script and then get the variable back.

The "df" command had to be used. The following line is inserted into the conkyrc file
${execpi 6 df / | tail -n1 | awk '{ print $5}'| sed 's/%//' | xargs /ConkyScripts/DiskUsageColorize.sh}$color%

This is the script file to do the color change of the value:

# Note: Assign color5=Green (GOOD), color4=Yellow (CAUT), and color2=Red (WARN) respectively
# your .conkyrc
NUM1=100 # 100 Percent
GOOD=50
CAUT=10

PF=$(($NUM1 - $1)) # Calcuates Percentage of Free Disk Space

if [[ $PF -le $CAUT ]]
then echo "\${color2}"$PF # Good
elif [[ $PF -le $GOOD ]]
then echo "\${color4}"$PF # Danger
else echo "\${color5}"$PF # Caution
fi

exit 0
=======================================
NOTE: "df" returns amount of disk space used not anount free. Also this is running on MEPIS so the directory calls are slightly different.
